Question

I\'m trying to setup a test Django project on Heroku. Following the advice here and in the Heroku Getting Started I\'m trying to use gunicorn instead of the Dj

Answer 1

I had the same exact issue that you are having. The way I was able to finally get it working was to use the django app gunicorn.

I added gunicorn to the django settings.py

'gunicorn',

I then used this as my web entry in my Procfile.

web: python manage.py run_gunicorn -b 0.0.0.0:\$PORT -w 9 -k gevent --max-requests 250 --preload

You may have to alter you .manage.py if you use a different directory structure then I did. My app was in /app, and my python path was also /app.
